Nothing is better than Zhang Ruoxu’s Spring River Flower Moon Night
Spring River Flower Moon Night (Tang Dynasty·Zhang Ruoxu)
The tide of the Spring River reaches the sea level, and the bright moon on the sea rises with the tide. The twinkling waves follow the waves for thousands of miles, but where is the spring river without the moonlight?
The river flows around Fangdian, and the moonlight shines on the flowers and forests like sleet. Frost is flying in the sky unknowingly, and the white sand on the pavilion cannot be seen.
The river and the sky are completely dust-free, and there is only a solitary moon in the bright sky. Who by the river sees the moon for the first time, and when does the moon on the river shine on people for the first time?
Life is endless from generation to generation, and the river and the moon are similar year by year. I wonder who Jiang Yue wants? But see the Yangtze River sending water.
The white clouds are slowly disappearing, and the green maple pond is full of sorrow. Whose family is in a boat tonight, where can I miss the moonlight tower?
Poor Yue Pei upstairs, she should be looking away from the dressing mirror. The jade door curtain cannot be rolled away, and it comes back when the clothes are smashed and brushed on the anvil.
At this time, we look at each other but do not hear each other, and I hope that the moonlight will shine on you. The swans fly long and fast, and the fishes and dragons dive and jump into the water.
Last night I dreamed of falling flowers in the pond, and it was a pity that I didn’t return home in the middle of spring. The spring water in the river is gone, and the moon has set in the west again.
The slanting moon hides the sea fog, and the Jieshi and Xiaoxiang roads are endless. I don’t know how many people are returning by the moon. The falling moon shakes the trees all over the river with love.
